    Alibhai,

    What i personally feel is…for any drive it is always safe to have the LEAD MARSHAL with a big vehicle like Patrol, Prado or LC….instead of a Jeep Wrangler…..Thers is no doubt that our marshals with wranglers are the best in their skills, but it becomes a bit difficult to follow a wrangler.

    Jeep Wranglers are the best as rescue vehicles as it can climb any type of dunes to rescue any stuck-ups…

    This is just a suggestion to avoid stuck-ups and wastage of time.

    Cheers……..

    Hi

    Having followed Sathwinder and Sam on intermediae drives, can surely say it is indeed a real challenge not only for big vehicles but in general for any one to keep their pace.

    But if you consider Ali’s point of view it is the best way to learn how to have a fast paced drive which you can do only following a wrangler. Its a different ball game all toghether and one has to experience to enjoy it.

    So now clear your doubt and establish your driving abilities by following Sam !!! 😀 :drive:

    I agree with Ali’s statement :-BD

    I will say an intermediate level drive following a lead marshal in Jeep, is the real challenge and fun. As we all know that it’s never easy to follow the tire marks of a lead marshal in jeep in dunes with LWB vehicles. But it provides a great learning opportunity to the participants. Instead of simply following the tire marks, it forces the participant to decide the correct approach, momentum and power suiting to the LWB vehicle, thus improving the driving skills and confidence.

    All our lead marshals are experts in carving safe routes, irrespective of the terrain giving utmost priority to the safety of participants and their vehicles. Therefore the hiccups we face are just good experience and stepping stones of success.

    Getting stuck is not at all a concern. It’s always the inevitable part of the learning process. Doing something stupid, risking safety is the real concern. Moreover it is in line with the say “You can’t learn swimming without getting wet”.
